Semi Official Plan For Reopening Exchange
A plan announced after talks between British financial envoys Sir George Paish Basil Brackett and leading New York bankers outlines prohibiting short selling until market machinery proves itself. It also earmarks securities sold for foreign accounts as payable in clearing house funds and seeks extended bank call loans with 1 to 15 percent rates. The plan aims to reopen by year end if conditions hold, despite opposition to a large cotton pool and unsettled foreign exchange pressures.
